Published in 2019 at "Journal of Medicinal Chemistry"

DOI: 10.1021/acs.jmedchem.9b00413

Abstract: Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) catalyzes the methylation of nicotinamide to form N-methylnicotinamide. Overexpression of NNMT is associated with a variety of diseases, including a number of cancers and metabolic disorders, suggesting a role for NNMT as… read more here.
